French Toast Pop-Tarts

If youâ€™re an avid reader of the Impulsive Buy, you know that we like Pop-Tarts. Weâ€™re Pop-Tart aficionados, if you will. We consider them to be part of our complete breakfast, and sometimes lunch, dinner, and midnight snack.

In the past few months, weâ€™ve reviewed this one, this one, and this one, which have also turned out to be our top three all-time favorite Pop-Tarts flavors.

Recently, I came upon the new French Toast Pop-Tarts and wondered if they really did taste like French Toast. However, itâ€™s been a while since Iâ€™ve eaten French Toast because Iâ€™m afraid of eggs, due to the egg cholesterol controversy.

First, they say eggs are bad for me, then they say theyâ€™re good for me, then they say theyâ€™re bad for me again, then they say they’re good for me again, and then they tell me that they’re good for me if I eat it in moderation.

Since I havenâ€™t had French Toast in a long time, I canâ€™t remember how it tastes. So I decided to overcome my fear of eggs and make French Toast.

Because I watch excessive amounts of the Food Network, I felt like I could cook some mean French Toast. Although to be honest, I mostly watch it for that babe Rachael Ray.

After cooking a stack of French Toast and adding the butter, cinnamon, and syrup, I did my comparison.

Oh, man. I forgot that I made some damn good French Toast.

Hell yeah!

Oh, they were so heavenly.

Then I declared myself the King of French Toast and I thought no inferior French Toast Pop-Tart could beat MY delicious French Toast.

Well, I was wrong.

The French Toast Pop-Tarts were pretty good, with its syrup filling and cinnamon sprinkled on top. However, itâ€™s not the best Pop-Tarts Iâ€™ve had, but itâ€™s probably one of my top 5 favorites.

Although, I think that the syrup filling wasnâ€™t that sweet and I wish it had a cinnamon-flavored frosting, instead of just cinnamon sprinkled on top. But overall, they totally do trump my own French Toast.

I guess the King of French Toast is dead.

Now that I think about it, maybe the reason why I stopped eating French Toast was not because of my fear of cholesterol, maybe it was because I suck at making French Toast.

i think eggs are better for you than meat. and also when i took food science, they said that all animal products have cholesterol but we don’t get that much cholesterol from the food we eat; our bodies make it. but then the doctors still tell people with high cholesterol not to eat certain stuff so i don’t know.

I’m confused now (some would say that is easily done), do you make good french toast or not? I demand, or at the very least entreat consistency from my favourite, product quasi-review team.

p.s. did you read the article from ‘wired’ about branding? Apparently you internet product reveiwing types are the singular cause of the downfall of capitalist branding. Feather for your cap their sir?

*rummages around in pockets*
I have, lets see…. a sachet of sugar….. hrmmm, what’s this? An Australian 50 cent piece (which to you would be worth about um, a ‘quarter’). *digs deeper* OK, or an enormous ball of pocket lint that I could send you?

My last French toast experience was somewhat subpar. Actually, it was also my first French toast experience. I didn’t know it was so damn eggy! Is that normal? If so – bummer, because I hate the taste of eggs. Do the pop-tarts taste eggy?

Do I have vegemite? Is the pope a catholic? Does a bear…. ….well you know the rest. Of course I have vegemite! I should warn you though, the first time people who weren’t raised with it taste vegemite… they usually shoot you this look that says “oh, and I suppose you like torturing cute little puppies too… you sick, sick, so and so”. Well that is my best translation anyway. I’ve got the vegemite if you’ve got the postal details?

I could easily live off both pop tarts and french toast, infact, I could live of anything with a dangerously high sugar level.

The only reason I don’t eat french toast everyday, is that I have four children and a husband who are absolute french-toast-pigs.So, I end up standing for hours slaving over a hot stove and very near fainting from cooking exhaustion!!

Jessie – Oh yeah forgot to mention this in the review. Pop-Tarts is encouraging people to freeze their Pop-Tarts as a different way to eat them. In a few of the previous Pop-Tarts reviews I did, I wrote about what they were like frozen.
